Korean Face Mask Obsession

August 22, 2016

In the last few
years, korean skin care’s popularity has exploded across the globe. I remember
initially being introduced to it via the infamous BB cream. However, I didn’t
get sucked in until a few months back, when the impressive 10+ step skin care regimen
of Korean women began to go viral. I started watching their skincare routine
videos religiously, being fascinated by how luxurious and pampering it all
seemed. While I still don’t have a routine as in depth as theirs, I do try
certain aspects of it every now and then. One thing that I have been loving
lately are sheet masks.

Sheet masks are
great if you’re looking for a quick and simple way to elevate your skin care
game and bring a little luxe into your life. They’re easy to use, mess free and
feels incredible! You can go about your business while your skin is treated
with the moisturizing essence from the mask and in the end you’ll be left with
soft and dewy looking skin.

While I enjoy
experimenting with different brands, my two favourite Korean brands lately have
been Innisfree and
The Face Shop. There are several different types of sheet masks
available, each catering to a different kind of skin care problem. I
immediately purchased the innisfree lime sheet masks following a
read on a blog post I came across where the girl had experimented with using
said sheet mask four days in a row. The results? Her skin was absolutely
glowing! Now I was at school, supposed to be studying for finals, when I came
across the post, but the results seemed so impressive, I took out my credit
card and ordered them off of Amazon right then and there (because, priorities).
It was a great purchase, because whenever I’m in the mood for a quick pamper
session I apply one and 15 minutes later I’m left with the most incredibly dewy
skin. These sheet masks are laden with essenceand definitely don’t disappoint!

Have any of you guys
experimented Korean skincare products yet? If so, which ones? If there's
anything specific that you use or any extra step you add to your skincare
regimen for an extra pampering feel, I would love to hear about!
